We of Our Princely Clemency and Care to prevent Suits and Prosecutions according to the rigour of Law against the Offenders herein , and to give them opportunities of voluntary restitution , have thought fit , by the Advice of Our Privy-Council , in this publick manner , to admonish all such Persons , who have any the said Goods in their possession , or know of any now , or formerly , in the custody of any other Person or Persons , to restore or discover the same .

And to the intent that no man who shall neglect this Our Grace , hereafter may be excusable , We do by this Our Proclamation , streightly charge and command all Persons whatsoever , who either have , or know where , or in whose custody , possession or keeping any of the aforesaid Goods or Chattels lately were , now are or remaine , to bring in , deliver , or cause the same to be delivered , or otherwise to make discovery thereof unto Our Right Trusty and Right Well-Beloved Cousin and Counsellor , Edward Earl of Sandwich , Master of Our Great Wardrove , on or before the Twenty Ninth day of September next ensuing , under the penalty of Our High displeasure , and as they will answer the contrary at their perill . And in case of refusal , or Non performance of Our Commands , thus favourably signified , within the time before limited and appointed ; Wee doe hereby also declare , that Wee shall not only look upon the disobedience of the persons concerned , but also take a strict and speedy course against them according to Law .

And We doe further declare , That Wee will reasonably reward any of Our well affected Subjects or others who shall discover unto us any the said Goods wilfully concealed
